Am American, don’t know what this says

I’ve read about YouTube delaying video play, buffering, and showing a blank screen for X seconds on all videos for non-Chrome browsers.

The desktop crashes don’t sound like YouTube, but I think the rest is the genuine anti-competitive behavior Google has demonstrated. I get these 5-6 second video delays and page refreshes on Firefox and Safari periodically but never in Chrome.

I’ve wanted this so badly for years

Easily one of the best games of all time, the whole series too. The sounds, the designs, the mechanics, the puzzles, but the story…the story is top tier.

If you have time to finish them all, you won’t be disappointed!

Parks and Rec is gold, and Andy Samberg is a treasure

Yeah, swing stater here. Sucks that your vote is drowned out. I know that frustration from before I moved here.

Yeah, I hear you on that.

But many are rightfully afraid of another Trump presidency and the not zero chance that there will be no further real elections. I’m sure you understand that view too.

I’ve seen you comment that in a few places, and I don’t really think I disagree with you. It’s truly awful what is happening and has happened to Palestinians. It’s also awful that our government is, on average, indifferent and in bed with AIPAC.

I wish there were real leaders here with courage to lead and be better. I would much rather vote to support men and women like that than “which of these ~~humans~~ trash bags will do the least damage.”

I did watch police protect their neo nazi friends and beat protesters, it’s disgusting.

But you are kidding yourself if not voting isn’t a vote for Trump. And you are kidding yourself if you think a right wing Christian nationalist party would send fewer bombs. They would send more “for Jesus” and I think you know that.

Did you not read the articles or watch clips of Trump threatening to deport college kid protestors? People who are commonly citizens…

I really love how you phrased this

Physically…can’t compare to much of this thread, probably one of my surgeries.

Emotionally though, losing my dad. Worse than I could have ever imagined and still so painful.

Call your parents/loved ones, folks. It’s worth the time and effort; if not for them, then for your future self.
